"The Author diverts the Emperor and his Nobility of both Sexes in a very uncommon manner. The Diversions of the Court of Lilliput described. The Author hath his Liberty granted him upon certain Conditions."

Because Gulliver has been behaving so well, the emperor, his court, and the general population are beginning to trust him. Gulliver also has made a great deal of progress in learning the language and learning about the culture he is now such a large part of.

The emperor decides to entertain Gulliver by showing him a tradition of the court in which candidates for an open position of honor compete by walking to the middle of a string or tight-rope that is suspended two-and-a-half feet above the ground. They jump as high as they are able. "Whoever jumps the highest without falling succeeds in the Office." Gulliver tells the reader that very often these competitors are injured or fall to their death.

Explain the importance of Colour in a photo? How might a photographer use it creatively?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Color in a photo can be helpful in many ways. A photographer may use it to have most of the photo light and gray, and then use bright colors to "pop out" and "stand out". This brings attention to parts that the photographer might want the viewer to pay attention to. It also makes the photo unique and can draw more attention to themselves, boosting their popularity because of their creativity. People tend to keep up to date with photographers that they like; that are unique and creative.
